Thanks for that pointer.  Implied there is that the FNDELAY comes
from some desire for BSD compatibility which it seems reasonable
for Android not to be too worried about.

I was surprised that Android's termios sys calls didn't support 
TCSAFLUSH, so we had to switch to TCSANOW on Android.

The recent change (adding FNDELAY) was added to accommodate 
a different Linux platform which didn't honor the termio setting of
VMIN=0 and VTIME=0 settings which define non blocking I/O.

Nope.  The name change was all that was needed.
